Pinfield Chatter Begins To Crank The Rumor Mill

by Altrok Radio

Well, we did some hinting yesterday about how it'd be nice if Matt Pinfield did some radio...now the rumor mill has ground into full gear on this thread at the New York Radio Board.

We cannot confirm or deny, but we'll tell ya what we can do...

We'll have a chance to talk about it a bit - or not, depending - when we spend some time woolgathering about the ol' days, tomorrow (Saturday) at noon on 88.7 WRSU. (We might even start early, depending on when live Rutgers Alumni Day Parade coverage ends.) I'm breaking out some old vinyl and so's Matt, so even if you're not all that interested in inside baseball, there'll be some great music played. I might even pull out an an old aircheck or two...

And, of course, do support our NextUnderground night at McCormick's (266 Somerset in New Brunswick) tomorrow evening - following on from the success of last week's outing at Tumulty's, if what I'm hearing is correct, there may be a lot more where that came from.

Good to hear from Sean and Matt today on WRSU! I was there at that great time at the station and it is nice to see that a few folks kept it going after leaving WRSU. Good luck at RXP Matt and Sean keep the blogging going. It is good to know both of you guys and share some of those precious memories from the early 80's at 88.7FM.

Please Look At Our Advertisers (Or The Website Gets It)
Congratulations, you've found the hidden text.
 
Welcome to Altrok.com, also available at AltrokRadio.com and AltrockRadio.com. Here's where the remaining listeners of several fine radio stations have retreated, regrouped, and built a replacement strong enough to stand on its own. It builds on the independent legacy of New Jersey's FM106.3, New York's WPIX and WLIR, Oklahoma's 105.3 The Spy, the pre-buyout mindset of KROQ, WBCN and WHFS and of every other alternative station that was destroyed at a moment's notice - not because they weren't making money, but because there was bigger money to be found elsewhere.
 
We've stood by as truly independent alternative rock radio died. Sure, something called "alternative" took its place, but we know for sure that anything that "tests well" with soccer moms just ain't alternative. (Even if some of us happen to be soccer moms.) So we've taken matters into our own hands.
 
This really is independent alternative rock radio, visible here at Altrok.com and audible at our web radio station. It has the classic music that fired our passions back in the day - or that we maybe only heard about from our elders - but it's mostly made of the new music that does precisely the same for us now. We're paying attention to scenes all over the world, watching the energy build, and waiting to see what it creates. Wherever it happens, we'll make sure you can hear about it here. We've been slowly building all this since 2001, and now that you've noticed us, we're glad you're here.
 
Of course, it's only here because you want it to be here, and it can only stay if you help it along - especially by checking out our advertisers (they support us) and by listening (the more that listen, the more visible we are.) Please use the "feedback" link above to let us know whether it works for you, and what you want it to be as the future unfolds. (And if you need help hearing it, let us know that, too.)
